“I’m going to go Lux my underthings and cry” just replaced “I’ll go cry in the lobby” as my phrase when things go wrong. Thanks!

That’s my takeaway, yes.

When I was a legal assistant, one of my clients was kind of on the verge of being agoraphobic. She had a lot of anxiety issues, and rarely left her home. But she was working on it - he doctors had gotten her to the point where she actually drove herself to the mall one day...where a door promptly fell on her.

TOO MANY LIMES! *shakes fist*

When my husband’s bunnies were still with us, I was constantly mugged for food. Mostly things they weren’t supposed to have...like Count Chocula, Clif bars, and cake.

What I've learned is that no one system works for everyone.

I did think of that, but dismissed it because it was lunch time - too early in the day (actually, I think it’s too early in the year here). They weren’t really dressed up either.

A limo pulled up to the IHOP next to my office yesterday and let a big group out, so when I read about this, I was so hoping the article would say it was an IHOP. Because who else would take a limo to IHOP, I ask you?

I am from Southern West Virginia. I will never go back there to live. It’s pretty to look at, but it’s also backward as hell and doesn’t want to change. I hate willful ignorance.

Yep! Super Troopers, Slammin' Salmon, Beerfest - I love all of them and have seen Lemme and Heffernan live twice.

I have a block against putting cups and glasses in the dishwasher. I will put my plate, bowl, utensils, the cutting board, etc. in the dishwasher, but my coffee cup? Sink. Wineglass? Sink. It irks my husband, and drove my parents nuts too. And I have no idea why I do this. Being aware of it hasn't helped much.

GOOD! I'm a book reader, but damn am I tired of waiting for the next one to find out what happens.

It was just the way they had it worded. I guess they never thought anyone else would pick up something like that, given that it's really local interest...but they don't know you're from the DC Metro.

ArlNow seems surprised you picked this up.....

I hate HATE HATE Seamless. My company's accounting department wants us to use it for all catering, because it generates one invoice and makes things easier for them. But Seamless sucks. They can't keep the menus right, and they don't pass along any of the special instructions you input (which led to me getting a…

Had we not eloped....my husband had planned to look into having Howard Finkel announce us husband and wife at our wedding.

I highly recommend eloping. ;)

My eldest cat Shelly is really old (probably 16 or so) and because she's on steroids she's started to gain a little weight - she's not in the dangerzone or anything. Just pudgy. She's also arthritic in her hips. So she doesn't run anymore. She does what we call "the fat waddle." It is so damned cute I do not have…

...that is my new favorite thing in life.

I wanted to do ballet as a kid. But I have a tendon issue (they don't stretch right). I was in ballet/tap classes as a kid for a short period, but because of the tendon thing my mom had no problem pulling me out when she got bored with it. It's not like it was going anywhere, I suppose.
